Originally posted by MASTERFIRE Why is PENTAX not producing a lens equivalent to their DA* (star) 16-50mm f/2.8 AL SDM, which is not compatible with the K 1? It's a fast WA zoom that's great for quickly changing situational shooting ...no lens to change if a 50 mm fl is needed. I use a SIgma DX 17-35, which is not a bad choice, but the K 1 deserves something closer to the DA 16-50* (star) lens....feedback, please.
HD Pentax-D FA 24-70mm F2.8 ED SDM WR is the FF equivalent in angle of view to the 16-50 with is a APS-C lens.
There is NO manufactureererer , Nikon, Canon, Sigma, Tokina that offers a Full Frame Lens, from ultra wide to standard focal length, the possible closest would be the Canon EF 17-40mm F4.
